It’s About Time Parts 1 and 2 Review

There's a hundred and four days of summer vacation,

then school comes along just to end it. So the

annual problem for our generation is finding

a good way to spend it. Like maybe building a

rocket, or fighting a mummy, or climbing up the

Eiffel Tower. Discovering something that doesn't

exist, or giving a monkey a shower. Surfing tidal

waves, creating nanobots, or locating Frankenstein's

brain. Finding a dodo bird, painting a continent,

or driving our sister insane! Vinius! As you

can see, there's a whole lot of stuff to do before

school starts this fall! Come on, Barry! So stick

with us, cause Vinius and Ferb are gonna do it

all! So stick with us, cause Vinius and Ferb

are gonna do - Hello and welcome to the seventh

day of summer here in the podcast organization

with a cool acronym. Yes, that's right. It is

day seven. You know, 104 days of summer, 104

podcasts. I am one of yours. Steve, you're like

joining me as always is peak on quote Michael.

Hey, how's it going? It's going, it's going.

Uh, today's theme folks is time travel. As we

all know it's best to go through time and not

through time and space because there's all kinds

of screwed up blue box bull snot with Daleks

and God knows what else with crappy companions

and whatever else it's it's better to just have

some time circuits a Hoverboard and you know

Biff's Kane this quick Not this quick Biff's

Kane. Oh It's Kane Hello McFly Hello McFly Hello

McWilson what's going on in that radio? Hello

Hello Think McFly think Okay Biff you're right

you're right when you're right you're right you're

right And just just think George McFly went on

to be the creepy -haired dude in Charlie's Angels.

That's right. That's funny. He also went... Oh,

I forget the name of the Willard remake. Was

it just called Willard? I don't know. Well, it

was like Crispin Glover and the Rats. Creepy.

OK, on that note, folks, we're going to head

to the Mesozoic area. Hey, you know kids these

fossils are of creatures that live right here

in Danville millions of years ago Lucky these

things aren't still here today. No lucky would

be if we weren't still here today Oh look this

t -rex footprint was found not 30 yards from

this very spot Hey, and it says here that this

fossil was dug up right near our very own neighborhood

Didn't we have a dog named Bucky who got sick

and went to live on kindly old man Simmons farm?

Let's move on shall we this next exhibit is kindly

old man Simmons. Hey who's up for milkshakes?

Gadgets through the ages. This exhibit was made

for us, Ferb. Hey, what are all those people

looking at? And this is one of our most curious

pieces. A time machine made by a 19th century

scientist named Xavier Onassis. But of course

we know he never finished it, or else we'd still

see him here today. Right? Right? Anyone? All

right. Moving on. All right, it's about time

parts 1 & 2 Phineas & Ferb repair a broken time

machine from the museum and then they then travel

back in time Accidentally taking Candice with

them the fireside girls build a replacement machine

to rescue them Meanwhile, Diffin Schmertz replaces

Perry with a new nemesis named Peter the Panda

Making Perry depressed. Oh Oh poor platypus.

I know So As I said yesterday, this is our first

kind of full length, one story, not two separate

cartoons in a 30 minute time span or a 23 minute

time span, whatever it is without commercials.

So this is the first full length Phineas and

Ferb story. It's about time. What did you think

when you initially saw this episode? I got to

the end of the episode and the credits started.

And I'm like, what? That's it? Number one, I

wanted more. Number two, I was really surprised

that it wasn't split up into two parts. And number

three, it was totally okay because it was awesome.

Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today. Right.

Let's fix us a time machine and I'm just gonna

go on the assumption that we're still connected.

Yes Strange awkward Silence. Ferb took over my

body. I mean, what do you want me to say? I don't

know, man. I mean, you know, we need, okay, so

folks - He was busy airing up the inflatable

Ferb. No, no, no. Okay, so folks, generally and

normally in any podcast, you do not want dead

air. With the exception of a Phineas and Ferb

podcast, I truly believe because anytime I will

do that, it's basically to homage Ferb. Because

as we all know, Ferb doesn't say a damn thing

half the time. He gets, you know, one or two

lines usually per cartoon. Right. All right.

So the yes, yes, we do moments. There is just

so this because this is essentially an oversized

Episodes just so much giant size number one Yeah,

pretty much going back in time and then setting

up the dr. D peter panda thing so much awesome.

Yeah, but the time machine time makes ties And

then you get dr. Phil. Oh, I mean dr. Feel better

dr. Phil better You know dr. Phil better. Yeah,

it was funny as it had dr. Phil better Which

is funny because it kind of looked like Dilbert.

Yeah, which might also be a Play on Phil Phil

for all better. I don't know but the whole episode

not the episode episode but the episode of the

talk show I'm getting very meta here played out

more like Jerry Springer Yeah, it really did

the Panda comes out like Like you can't judge

me. You don't know me. Yeah. Yeah. Even though

he doesn't talk, you could see it in the body

language. I think it was an homage to all of

the various talk shows. I mean, the only thing

that isn't really there is anything from Oprah

or Sally, Jesse, Raphael or Ricky Lake. Well,

I don't think they hosted that type of, you know.

Oh, Geraldo Rivera, that's where the throne and

chairs comes from. Yeah. Yeah. He's like, you

see the panda throwing a chair and he's like,

thank you for sucking my chairs. I need that.

I cracked up. That was funny. We're getting ahead

of ourselves though. Let's start at the beginning.

What's at the beginning? Bucky the dog and kindly

old man said The fossil looked like a dog with

a collar that said Bucky it's like this is we

have a dog named Bucky they went to go live with

kindly old man Simmons and then It was dug up

That was kind of a weird one -off gag, but it

made me giggle. Well, maybe it's the time that

I've seen this episode now that maybe it's because

at this time where we're just past the release

of Captain America Civil War and all that, it

came out in May of this year. Oh, Bucky Burns.

All's I can think of is oh my god Michael J Fox

and whoever the hell plays Bucky Barnes You know

my Teen Wolf Michael J Fox turned into a dog

and it ended up being Bucky Barnes Really oh

All right, anyway, I was gonna say that the guy

who played that is the guy who played that I

don't think that's the same guy No, it's not

this. No, I'm saying if you combine The fact

that Bucky in the show is a dog. You have to

use Michael J. Fox's as Teen Wolf for the dog

reference. And then because the name is Bucky,

it's Bucky Barnes as a dog. Anyway, isn't that

impossible? That's a possibility. Yeah, that's

a possibility. That's right. That was a good

line. Isn't that possible? Well, that's a possibility.

First appearance of Carl, the intern. Yeah. They

call them by name, but this is the first time

we've actually seen him Yep, absolutely and he

becomes a major player. Oh Yeah, yeah But yeah,

the the clearly the best part of this episode

is when doofensmarts gets caught cheating He's

just like it's not that I don't hate you anymore

Just a little hate you like that now. Yeah, he's

backpedaling so well. Well, you know, it's like

It's kind of like You know what your girlfriend

shows up at your house and you got another girl

in there with you and it's like whoa Hey, don't

look behind that door. Oh you look behind the

door. Oh, no It's uh, it plays out like that

but opposite because it's you're not supposed

to be Love someone with your nemesis. You're

hating your nemesis. He's just like You know

why don't you just go you're really making this

awkward? And this is the debut of the theme song

my nemesis Yeah, in fact, I want to say there's

there's two songs here Yeah, yeah, they have

the the breakup montage song Yeah, Perry has

the bad breakup and he he sings the song Well,

they don't he doesn't sing but he doesn't say

yeah, he's a put his platypus. He isn't too much

But there's a song and a montage about how he

really enjoyed fighting with his nemesis And

the second song was my nemesis Yeah, you know

it it should have really been a huge hint that

there was not only was there two songs episode,

there were two Ferb lines. Yep. Ferb actually

had two lines in this. At the second, you know,

the second Ferb line, it should have been like,

whoa, this is clearly two episodes. Sandwiched.

Yeah. I mean, I think when they initially aired,

they were two separate episodes when they initially

aired, I believe. Again, I'm not looking at the

Wiki to find this out, but I believe they were.

But the way that they've put them on DVDs and

the way they're on Netflix, it runs as one episode,

which I actually prefer it that way because I

just think, especially with this series, when

you have a two parter, when you have something,

say part one and part two, I think they should

run concurrently, not separately. Well, that's

probably how they do the commercials or something.

Yeah, true. Like that Ferb line this could be

a problem Yeah, this is the t -rex. He's like

I will take me home. Okay, that won't be a problem

And then the t -rex steps on the time machine

and Ferb says this could be a problem That made

me giggle I Love the scooter that they're on

trying to get away from the running t -rex that's

chasing them. Yeah I remember as a kid, I don't

know, between probably 6 and 11, I was super

into dinosaurs. I was into all that stuff. And

I haven't been into dinosaurs in a long, long

time, but episodes like this every now and then,

from this cartoon or from any other cartoon,

you know, just absolutely bring me back to my

childhood when I used to absolutely love talking

about dinosaurs and all that stuff. Because I

think the closest thing I get to now is like,

you know, Grimlock, Slag, Sludge Jurassic World

I saw Jurassic World twice, it was awesome But

yeah, now this episode you have you have time

travel Specifically like H .G. Wells time travel

and dinosaurs So awesome And then you have the

the back of the future montage where things that

Happening in the past affect the future because

you have them right Candice makes the heart with

the C and the J and and then you know she falls

down in the in the in the mud and and Florence

sees her dad sees it. Oh, doesn't this look like

Candice and then they drive through it and it

doesn't look like her anymore Did you notice

that like the time problem because they show

the fossil with her face and he goes, it looks

just like Candace. And then he runs off to get

Lindana and and then the boys drive over it.

Right. Right. And their scooter and it splashes

it. And then by the time he brings Lindana back,

it's got a line through it and looks just like

Candace. And she's like, that's being dear. Yeah.

But then five minutes later, they find another

print. but it doesn't have Candice's face next

to it or a line through it. And Phineas says,

don't you know what this is? This is the exact

print that's in the museum. And then he writes

a message in it. And I'm like, wait a minute,

that's not the same print because that's not

the one with the indentation next to it. Yeah,

but yeah, so yeah, that's maybe that was an error.

Maybe it was creative license. I don't know I

think that was more of an error because it looked

like there were two separate ones Yeah, it's

like was he running around in a big circle that

they run back to that print and then somehow

smudge off all the Anyway There's a slushy dog

in the museum It's new It's slushy dogs, they

just make them all over the place, you know,

they they put them by the By the my rush bar,

you know, they put them in the mall. They put

them in museums And he's the only guy that ever

works in these places. It's just him Yeah Well,

they have to do something with him Because he's

Candace's crush and all that and you gotta have

her, you know, obsessing because that's part

of her character. She obsesses over busting her

brothers and she obsesses over Jeremy. And that's

the whole point of her character. She can't pick

between the two because it's such strong feelings

either way. She wants to get her brothers in

trouble and she wants to, you know, run away

with Jeremy. She wants to run away. And the thing

is, yeah, her, uh, her, uh, her, uh, her infatuation

with Jeremy. uh overrides or the need to bust

your brothers sometimes it does in many cases

yeah she's just like you know what i gotta make

a choice here and i'm gonna there's one that

we'll see later where she's uh where she's hallucinating

a whole bunch of stuff and And Jeremy actually

asks her to marry him and she goes, no, this

is the weird part. I see that zebra all the time.

Oh, okay, Candace. That's the weird part. I see

that zebra. It's Kevin. Hello, Kevin. Yeah. It's

Kevin the Zebra. That's funny. What I love about

this is they actually will make mention of this

later, this entire adventure later in Quantum

Boogaloo. And I kind of wish Baljeet was here

somewhere, like at the end of the episode or

something, because it would have been kind of

cool, but it kind of works out itself out when

we get to that later episode. Yeah, but it's

about time. It's a really cool episode. I actually

like the longer story format. I like how obviously

how fluid it is and whatever else and the overall,

you know, the A story and the B story kind of

really don't even intersect here. Well, they

do, but they do inadvertently. As Dr. Newfin

Schmertz would say, you know, This happens so

inadvertently or maybe it happened virtually.

Who knows? It says rather inadvertent and by

inadvertent, I mean totally vertebrate All right,

you a little young to be working in a museum

I Forgot what he how he answered it actually

but it led immediately into the well, it's a

It's nice to see young people taking an interest

in the museum. I appreciate having the whole

half hour here basically because each of these

storylines, it's a strong storyline. The time

travel one was really good. I like the candy

-saurus or candysaurus. Yeah, she pokes her head

out like a furry dog and they're all like It

was funny and and the whole the whole You know

doofenshmirtz and Perry breakup The breakup storyline

was was so well done there was so much attention

to detail there that I I Would not have been

as happy with it if they had cut that in half.

Right. And try to tell it that way. Yeah. Yeah.

Stories like this are better as full half hour

episodes. Yeah. That's right. If you're gonna

have a singular B story with Doof and Schmertz,

you know, it's fine in just one episode and then

have a different backstory, you know, have a

different story with him in the second cartoon

that's separate. It's a separate plot line, but

these overall stories are just absolutely awesome.

So what would you rate? It's about time. Oh,

we're going to give this another five. Yeah,

totally five. Yeah, absolutely. Fives all around.

So that's oh, you know what? You know what else?

One more thing before we wrap this up. Lots of

other agents. Yeah, this is the first time they've

actually said oh, you know, you know, we have

we have the agency without a cool acronym, but

But there's an agency there. There's a lot of

Bad guys lots of super but they haven't they

haven't introduced love muffin yet but but they

But they they have come out and said yeah, they've

shown Bunches of evil villains and bunches of

agents and how their relationships are You know

that they they pair up as nemesis and villain

or or good guy bad guy nemesis pairs This is

the first time we see most of if not all of the

members of what will eventually become love muffin

And we see most of if not all of the regular

animal agents and They pretty much they introduce

them all right in this one clip without or white

right in this one scene without really having

to introduce them All of the time, right? Right

because you always see that agent C goes at you

know The chicken agent goes after this one guy

the dog agent D agent D the dog goes after the

other guy Yeah, and it's it's really cool that

they were able to just do that as as one thing.

Yeah Without needing to take up time Having to

introduce them all right and I want to say earlier

There was a an episode where they they didn't

introduce but the panda was in it No, this is

Peter the pandas first. I mean he might have

shown up. Well, he showed up because it was an

instance where What was it where where Perry

had the jump in the tube and go all the way?

He was somewhere Maybe yeah, I want to say maybe

it was the maybe it was when they went to Mount

Rushmore and They were far away and he had to

take this tube all the way there and at one point

there was a juncture where two tubes met and

Yeah, Perry stopped and a panda came and he stopped

and they kind of both kind of tipped their hat

and then kept going Yeah, so that was our first

idea that wait a minute Perry's not the only

secret agent Mean I didn't really think he was

I just it just doesn't seem like they have that

organization without a cool acronym and So you

assume there's there's more than just you know

Monahan and their major moment monogram monogram

monogram Monahan my honey Yeah, no, there's more

than just major monogram and Perry But that was

the first time that you actually saw some type

of structure like wait a minute. There's another

guy There's another agent. Maybe there's you

know, others other Super villains and and then

here we are with all of our mad scientists and

all of them have lab coats It's like why are

all these pharmacists here? I don't understand

Yeah, according to the Finneas and Ferb Wiki

his first actual appearance was this episode

it's about time Well, they didn't name him before

he was just a guy of the Sun right yeah the guy

of the tube Yeah, but yeah, but then we have

seen him once Yep, we didn't realize that he

was moving in on his territory Just love the

whole Seattle thing. It's like oh, it's where

grunge bands live It's like transporting me back

to the 90s. Holy crap Yeah, excellent episode

though. It was really absolutely a lot of fun

Yeah, we're gonna take a quick break come back

with closing the show after this cool That's

a possibility. Alright, folks, that's going to
